94 AMERICAN FERN JOURNAL 
Look the list over. If you can add some species not 
now in the collection, or some interesting variety, send 
it in, but do not hesitate also to send in good plants of 
any of the kinds already there. One of the most valu- 
able features of such a fern garden will be the associa- 
tion of plants of a given species from widely separated 
localities. At present the various kinds are represented | 
mostly by only one or two collections. 
Now is a good time to collect plants for transplanting. 
They should be lifted with as little disturbance as pos- 
sible, the roots wrapped in moist paper or moss, and 
firmly tied. It is a good plan to cut back some of the 
leaves and is often more convenient in packing. Send 
by parcel post or express to the Brooklyn Botanic 
Garden, Washington Ave., Brooklyn, N. Y
